Zetan Spore are the masters of playing head games with their music. They tease, taunt, entice, seduce and release with firm control and a lightness of touch. Their music takes you everywhere you want to be…and a few places you never expected to go. While this may be the domain of hard trance the music is far from mindless. It’s a carefully crafted experience guaranteed to put a smile on the face of any hard dance fan.

While the Southwest of England hasn’t been considered de rigueur in terms of Haute music for many years, it would be a mistake to think the music scene there has died. In fact, the music scene there has grown and flourished away from the scrutiny of the music centres of Britain. These intergalactic space cowboys have used this freedom to experiment, push the dance music envelope and build a well earned profile for themselves on the British underground scene.

Evolving from the free party and festival circuit of the mid ‘90s, twin brothers Ian and Mark Hasdell have tapped into something extraordinary. Jaded clubbers, surfers, sk8ers and adrenaline junkies want something more from their dance music…wanting a bigger bang for their buck. This is a world where dance music fans have their own minds, know what they like and know what they want. Zetan Spore captures the spirit of this zeitgeist to perfection… They more than deliver the goods.

This is an act that knows how to write and deliver deceptively simple but
devastatingly exquisite hooks. The live sounds from guitars and didgeridoo plusfierce tribal breaks give their tracks a definitive stamp and a rich depth of sound. It is a stamp that has won them rare praise from the likes of The Guardian and featured spots at live events such as London’s Antiworld. The overall effect is one that pushes clubbers into a frenzy on dance floors and festivals throughout the UK.

A Zetan Spore live show is nothing short of an experience. The mega-ton blasts of energy, positivity, joy and enthusiasm that erupts from Mark and Ian drives the crowds wild. The brothers believe their stage show is every bit as important as their studio work. Their live performances unleash a world of multimedia visuals, projections and quality sound. Once seen, never forgotten.

Zetan Spore has won admiration, respect and success on the UK underground scene through years of hard work and sticking faithfully to their vision. This success has seen the release of five well-received LPs: The Pillars of Creation (1998), Subspace Distortions (1999), Outer Space Hopper Safari (2000) and Transwarp Audio Head Drive (2002) and Burn Up (2004). Their latest LP, Escape Velocity, maintains a distinctive underground hard trance feel its uplifting and energetic vibe has strong crossover appeal.
